Angela Sekerak

Inclined toward art since a young age, American painter Angela Burns (née Sekerak) studied representational art at Pensacola Christian College. While there, she spent a rigorous six years painting under the mentorship of Brian Jekel. Through her training, she was exposed to the great masters of oil painting: John Singer Sargent, Joaquín Sorolla, Cecilia Beaux, and the American Impressionists, who have had a profound influence on her work. Angela also gleans inspiration from modern masters including Daniel Gerhartz, Richard Schmid, Nancy Guzik and many others.

Angela is a member of Oil Painters of America and competes regularly in regional, national, and international shows. Her work is included in private collections in Florida, Alabama, Colorado, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Tanzania.
Angela feels deeply the privilege it is to paint, to see, enjoy, and reflect God’s glory in the created world, and sincerely
wants to honor Christ with her brush and her life. She lives with her amazing husband Chad in Illinois.
